Re: Pacers/Knicks Postgame Thread

Pacers shouldn't have won this game by most any means, outplayed by a team on back to back, shorthanded, missing free throws in the 4th quarter, but then Paul George put on his crown.

I thought Beno had the hands of God there for the whole game, all that crap he threw up was going in.

The league knows it. They should be ashamed of themselves to let the security be as lax as it is around here."

Re: Pacers/Knicks Postgame Thread

Regardless of what we should have done, we just beat a team with a pretty strong roster at THE GARDEN. Those teams we played on our 4 games 5 nights stretch didn't do what they were SUPPOSED to do. Cant we just celebrate how great of a game that was?

Paul George just cemented himself as a legit MVP candidate by taking over at MSG on national television.

Ugly win. Refs may have given us second life at the end of the game (not saying it wasn't a foul, but Lebron or any other star is most likely NOT getting that called on them) but we came out and won the game in OT.

Gotta quit missing FTs in the 4th (Hill) and we also need to quit playing carelessly (Lance)

The player of the game goes to PG. Dude is so clutch.

Despite GH missing critical FTs and late game 3's in the final minutes of the regulation, I think we should not be too down on him. He delivered also at pivotal points in the game and his last 3 gave the Pacers the lead late in the 4th.

Our guys need to work on their FTs. One miss can just be a game changer when the game is this close.

Re: Pacers/Knicks Postgame Thread

I wonder what happened to lance after some bad play late in the third. Did he self correct and step back. I noticed he was still rebounding, but always threw ball right away to either PG or Hill. Or did the coaches put lance in his place a little?

George Hill owes quite a few people some backpacks...and maybe some sprints or something lol.

I hope Vogel was on one shoe the rest of the game and Lance was walking funny.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Or throw in a first-round pick and flip it for a max-level point guard...

I noticed that too, I think Frank put the leash so to speak on Lance, after a couple of those wild plays in the 3rd. I think if it were last season, he would've taken him out of the game, but this year he's trying to teach Lance on the court more.

Re: Pacers/Knicks Postgame Thread

That's kind of one of the "issues" the Pacers have playing the way they do. Teams are playing their hardest for them now, and unless the team really caves in early the Pacers don't blow teams out. The Pacers score a lot more in the 2nd half than the first half atm, hopefully that can balance better.

Miami has the 1 man fast breaking freight train and can out score, and out gun people, plus they've played pretty much the same crap east teams the Pacers were feasting on earlier as well.
